Mobile Apps
Since the first edition of this book was published back in 2012, web apps—and mobile apps in particular—have taken off. On most websites, mobile devices have now overtaken desktop computers as the largest source of traffic (Source: Perficient, Inc.).
Source: Perficient, Inc. is a link that is broken.

Broken link.
link text "Source: Perficient, Inc." points to
blogs.perficient.com/2018/07/16/deepening-our-content-and-seo-skills-with-stone-temple-consulting/mobile-vs-desktop-usage-study/
Which returns:
This site can’t be reached www.stonetemple.com’s server IP address could not be found.
Also, you may consider replacing the broken link with this exact updated
resource which points back to the right pages within that website:

Example 1-1, elseif(is_user_logged_in()) |
The second elseif expression should be:
elseif(!is_user_logged_in())
The code in the book is missing the logical NOT operator ( ! ) in front of the call to is_user_logged_in()
As written it makes no sense because the is_user_logged_in() method clearly should return true if the user is logged in but the code in the elseif clause is written to handle the case where the user is NOT logged in

First paragraph in the get_user_by(...) section |
I believe this is a typo.
Second sentence should read "...basically queries the wp_users table..." It currently says "wp_user table," which I don't believe exists.

"You can also customize the markup of your menus by using Custom Walker classes (see Chapter 7)."
- There is no section in Chapter 7 covering the custom walker classes
- No entry in the index for walker classes under Custom, Menu or Walker
- A search in the mobi (kindle) edition returns only the one result
